 |

I listen to the BT MotoGP Podcast, they were interviewing Matt Le Blanc who was at Le Mans (Big GP fan apparently) He said his input in the show is to put more bikes in the new series. He also said he was off to talk to Vale (and others) about making an appearance. Sounds promising  ____________________ Well, you know what they say.

Seems true, just a quick search of Chris Evan's twitter to see if he does ride or it's go to be yet more people that pretend to have an interest but know absolutely nothing about bikes and found the below image.

Nah, people still say they won't watch it. I bet my left testicle that they will.
There will be 3 kinds of viewers:
1) Fans of the old/previous Top Gear, watching just to see the new crew fail.
2) People that just like shows about cars and won't care much.
3) People who will give it a go and decide later (me).

Side question for the old enough. Do you remember the first ''new format'' of the Top gear? How they turned a serious motoring program into a comedy show. I bet there were people that were against it as well as there are people now, crying about Clackson, May and the wee one leaving the BBC.  ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

Yeah, I remember when the likes of Quentin Wilson and Tiff Needell were the presenters on top gear. Like you say, quite a factual show back in the day. Much like 5th gear is now. I don't remember anyone getting upset about the change of format though. Having said that, I wasn't spending any social time on the internet back then. I'm definitely in the 2nd camp you outlined. I actually like Chris Evans, but then I was an impressionable youth in the 90s and loved the original TFI friday. I'm actually less likely to watch the new incarnation of Clarkson/May/Hammond (has that started yet?) as old "new" topgear got very tired towards the end and it'll probably just be more of the same from them. ____________________ 1977 Honda CG125

Not going to waste my time on the new top gear, it is actually not top gear without the 3.
Wait for the new Amazon series. ____________________ Motorcycle riding can be really cozy. If you want to be a little closer to your passenger, brake a little quicker for the next stop.  |

4) People that loved the original show until their 3 ego's got way too big and it became about them rather than the cars SO...now want to see some fresh blood pumped into it and bring it back to its former glory....although wouldn't mind If Chris Evans fucked off. ____________________ Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. |
